My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Raised bed with a garbage can?

18 years ago

Hi. I plan on planting two kiwis and a blueberry in raised beds, and I'm thinking about slicing down a bug round plastic garbage can for this. Seems like a quick and easy solution, but is there any reason why I shouldn't? Thanks.
